And now, for a Thursday afternoon procrastination, Michael Mina and friends have unveiled some design details for their next restaurant, named The Company — but bearing no relation to Company in the Mission (which Michael Bauer is reviewing this weekend).

As noted earlier, it’s the Mina Group’s foray into East India, set in the former Shanghai 1930 space on Steuart Street. The 5,200 square foot space will be divided into two separate bar and dining areas. It’s all is going to be designed by Amy Kim of Los Angeles-based AK Design Network, who also designed Katsuya Hollywood and collaborated with Philippe Starck on Beverly Hills’ SLS Hotel. There will be an open kitchen, a chef’s counter and even tandoori ovens.

Check out some design highlights in the gallery above, including the big carnival-like lightbulb sign in the bar. For those of you who don’t speak Hindi, “Nasha” means “intoxication.”
